CDM contest in January
The new year is beginning, and the 4-H calender is really filling up. :-) One of the absolute BEST projects a 4-H participant can do is Consumer Decision Making. Knowing how to make wise purchases is not just something to learn for a "competition", it is a LIFE SKILL we ALL need, especially in today's economy. The time to learn these skills is while we are young.
This project benefits not only the students, but the adults as well. :-)
The deadline to enter the District Competition is January 12, 2010. The District competition will be held January 25th, in Overton. Registration begins at 4:15 pm.
You can find the study materials HERE: Click on each of the "blue" topics and print the material.
Also, there are two videos on Youtube that may be of help to you, especially if you are new to CDM. You may view them here:
